STOKE CITY could face disciplinary action after a fan barged into Coventry City goalkeeper Marton Fulop on Saturday.

Three supporters ran on to the pitch after the Potters were beaten 1-0 by the Sky Blues in their final home match of the season, and one of them shoved Fulop before being detained by stewards.

The control of fans is a sensitive issue at the Britannia Stadium with chief executive Tony Scholes having promised a review of stewarding in December after a fan attacked visiting keeper Simon Royce at the end of a 2-1 defeat against Queens Park Rangers.

A subsequent melee involved at least two dozen players, stewards and officials.

And in February, 19-year-old Martin Wilson was sentenced to 164 days at a young offenders' institute after pleading guilty to assaulting the keeper and unlawfully entering the field of play, as well as a number of unconnected offences.

He was also banned from attending all domestic and international matches for three years.

If the Potters are found guilty of failing to control their supporters by the FA, the club could be fined or even threatened with a temporary ground closure or a docking of points.

FORMER Sky Blue favourite Calum Davenport could make a return to the club tonight when City's reserves take on Tottenham at Rugby Town's Butlin Road.

The 23-year-old centre-back started his first senior Spurs game against Manchester United last week but missed the north London derby with Arsenal with a knock, but could make a return to action in the second string (7pm).
